  1. The website gives McGregor -265 odds to win by knockout, and gamblers can get +185 odds for the fight ending in any other fashion. It’s been more than two years since Diaz won a fight that ended.
  2. Nate Diaz, who of course faced McGregor twice previously - winning one and losing one - has now offered his own thoughts on where his UFC rival went wrong back in January.

The early betting odds for the UFC 241 co-main event between Nate Diaz and Anthony Pettis have been released. It was reported earlier this month that Diaz would make his return against Pettis in a.

The MMA event we’ve all been waiting for arrives on Saturday night, with Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz headlining the much-anticipated UFC 202.

McGregor vs. Diaz is Here

McGregor hasn’t been inside the Octagon since being choked out by Diaz at UFC 196, but he’s made sure everyone hasn’t forgotten him.

From a would-be retirement, to a superfight with Floyd Mayweather Jr, the man they call Notorious has remained in the MMA limelight, even though he hasn’t thrown an official punch since March.

McGregor has been biding his time, working himself into even better shape solely to take down Diaz once and for all. Neither fighter has backed down or lacked for confidence in the past five months, which plays into Vegas giving out weak odds for this fight.

Countdown to #UFC202:

1 day. #TheNotoriousReturn

McGregor vs. Diaz Odds

The straight up odds are not at all enticing as seen as Bovada, with Conor McGregor entering UFC 202 as the mild favorite and Diaz getting even money to win the hyped rematch:

  • McGregor to Win (-130)
  • Diaz to Win (Even)

Method of Win

With the straight up Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz odds not being super appealing, many UFC fans may be more inclined to make a bet on precisely how this match will end.

The first match didn’t get past two rounds and ended with Diaz pulling off a rear naked choke and submitting McGregor. Will we get past two rounds this time? Will one of the fighters end it even earlier than before? And what will the method of victory actually be?

Bovada gives some interesting options with some appealing odds:

  • McGregor wins by Knockout/Tech Knockout/Disqualification (+135)
  • Diaz wins by Submission (+200)
  • Diaz wins by KO/TKO or DQ (+475)
  • McGregor wins by Decision/Technical Decision (+500)
  • Diaz wins by Decision (+650)
  • McGregor wins by Submission (+1600)
  • Draw/Technical Draw (+7500)

It isn’t going to take a rocket scientist – or an MMA expert, for that matter – to eliminated this fight going into a Drew or even ending in a Decision after five full rounds.

These dudes beat the hell out of each other the first time, so there are only a few options here: either one of them knocks the other out, or someone gets so gassed that they get lazy and fall into a trap much like McGregor did the first time around.

A lot of people are really discrediting McGregor for how much damage he inflicted on Diaz, and in turn have noted Diaz’s ridiculous career, which has given way to exactly one TKO and one Submission.

Odds Of Nate Diaz Winning

At least professionally, we’ve never seen Nate Diaz get knocked out and he’s only been submitted once. The other eight matches he lost, he simply lost by score (or Decision).

That doesn’t mean he can’t get knocked out or submitted, though. His one TKO got stopped because he was on the verge of getting knocked out and he has been submitted before.

With McGregor’s skill-set and drive, it’s very possible he tries to make history here and become the first guy to knock Diaz out cold. That alone makes the McGregor KO bet an interesting one. Of course, it’d be a lot more interesting if the odds (+135) weren’t so weak. Clearly, Vegas notes the rarity of Diaz getting flat out beaten in his fights and is protecting itself for it.

Due to that, you’re not going to want to throw a ton of cash on McGregor winning simply by KO, as it just puts too many eggs in one basket. McGregor has said that Diaz “will be knocked out“, which may mean he has zero intention of submitting him, either.

McGregor is also going to be on guard in this rematch, so Diaz submitting him a second straight time feels somewhat unlikely.

Then again, it has to be worth noting that all three of McGregor’s professional losses have come by – you guessed it – submission.

We still like McGregor’s brash personality and find it hard to believe he’s going down so easily again, but if you’re looking for a logical, high upside bet, these are the bets to consider:

  • Diaz wins by KO/TKO or DQ (+475)
  • McGregor wins by Decision/Technical Decision (+500)
  • Diaz wins by Decision (+650)

Round Betting

For MMA bettors looking for a round-by-round bet, Bovada gives you a bet for the fight to go the distance (Yes, +300 or No, -500), a 2.5 round threshold (+110 for 2.5+ rounds and -155 for under 2.5 rounds) as well as a bet for each fighter to win in any of the five rounds provided.

For the latter, the most interesting bets rest in round five, where you can bet on either McGregor or Diaz (+1400) to finish the fight before the clock stops.

McGregor vs. Diaz Prediction

The McGregor vs. Diaz betting isn’t quite as appealing as we’d like for a massive UFC fight, but there is enough here to work with.

Our suggestion is to really go with your gut here, but refrain from betting insanely high amounts just because Vegas is calling this one close and it feels like it could truly go either way.

McGregor is a really tough guy to bet against, as he could have easily won the first go around if he had done a few things differently. We’re admittedly in the minority, but it’s tough for anyone to win twice against the same opponent and McGregor needs to get this monkey off his back so he can turn back to defending his featherweight title.

We like his chances of being the first guy to knock Diaz out and get the win, and we’d estimate that happening in 2.5 rounds or less. That being said, the good money is elsewhere when it comes to your best UFC 202 betting opportunities, so adjust accordingly.

Next on the odds board is Khabib Nurmagomedov who has +300 odds of taking on McGregor.

The two have faced off once before where Khabib took the victory, but it was the dram that occurred after the fight was over that could potentially stop this rematch from happening. After the fight was over Khabib and McGregor got into separate scuffles with each other’s campaigns.

Streak

UFC President, Dana White recently chimed in on a potential rematch between the two powerhouse fighter saying that it would be the biggest fight in history.

This fight sits perfectly at second on the odds board as this rematch still would need to be looked at by UFC officials. Bettors who are looking to bet on the Khabib as the darkhorse fighter to take on McGregor could be in line for a sizeable payout.

Third on the odds board is Justin Gaethje who has +450 odds. Gaethje recently fought at UFC 249 where he defeated Tony Ferguson.

Shortly after the fight, McGregor went off on Gaethje on Twitter.

Justin, there is no danger in a man that hugs legs, we all know. Try and dance around what the real threat is here all you want.
I am going to fucking butcher you.
Your teeth. I’m going to put them on a fucking necklace.
Speak on my skills as a father?
You are fucking dead.

— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 11, 2020

Surprisingly, this fight falls third on the odds board as McGregor openly called Gaethje out.

Odds Of Nate Diaz Winning Numbers

This would be a fight for the ages as both fighters have strong records while Gaethje has a 22-2 record and McGregor is at 22-4. Both fighters have 19 (T)KO’s in their career and could be looking to add one more against one another.

Those looking to bet on a longshot, this is the bet to make as it seems that McGregor is just waiting for Gaethje to respond.
